Brookfield students travel back in time Discovery boxes commemorate 100th anniversary of First World War Erin McCracken

News - After trying on a heavy metal helmet that would have been worn a century ago by a soldier

just a few years older than him, Amnar Abozkar said he can’t imagine what it was like to wear the helmet in the First World War trenches. “I’d get headaches, migraines all day,” the Grade 10 Brookfield High School student said of the heavy object, which slipped slightly when he tried it on.

News – A new high school could come to Riverside South sooner than anticipated if parents in Nepean, Barrhaven and Manotick send their children to school in the growing community, according to the public school trustee for Zone 7. Current projections peg the construction of a new $25- to $30-million high school at seven to eight years from now, and a new $13- to $15-million elementary school could be built there within the next three or four years, said Mark Fisher. “Right now Riverside South on its own doesn’t have a big enough population to fill a high school,” he said. The population of Riverside South currently stands at 14,000, but there needs to be about 25,000 to generate the 1,000 students needed to justify opening a new secondary school on land already purchased at Spratt and Earl Armstrong roads. But with the opening this summer of the Strandherd-Armstrong bridge, the timelines for construction could be moved up because the river is no longer a barrier, said Fisher, who discussed the issue with about 50 parents at Rideauview Community Centre in Riverside South on Oct. 1. “So there’s an opportunity to reach across the bridge and try and grab the numbers you might need in the short term to build that high school,” he said. “We might be able to make the numbers work within five or six years. Barrhaven communities that could use the new school include those around Farley Mowat Public School, Adrienne Clarkson Elementary School and Longfields-Davidson

Heights. Manotick could also benefit from the new school, Fisher said. “I think there’s an opportunity to talk to them about how they could drive to Riverside South and be part of a new high school, which could help maybe get you to the numbers faster.” Though a new addition will be built at Longfields-Davidson Heights, the grade 7 to 12 school is feeling the “stresses and strains” of growth, said Fisher, who is seeking re-election in the municipal race for English public school board trustee for Zone 7. There is also a sense of urgency around the construction of a new elementary school in Riverside South, which Fisher said could happen in three to four years. Even with last year’s construction of additional classrooms, Steve MacLean Public School is over capacity. That pressure must be relieved, Fisher said. In order to move up the construction date for a new high school, proponents need “to stage the conversation right” to put the community in the best possible position to ensure the school is higher up on the province’s priority list, he said. “I think if we did our homework and work with some of the communities on the other side of the Strandherd bridge, and connect those communities in a stronger way, I think we can make the case that we can get the numbers right to open that school in five to six years as opposed to seven or eight,” said Fisher. A new high school would shrink commute times for youth who have to travel to schools outside Riverside South, he said.

Findlay Creek school nearing shovel ready stage Continued from page 2

“I think having your kids bused out to Merivale High School is too far,” the trustee said. “They want a more local school,” said Fisher, adding that others have traded in the English public school board for the Catholic school board, specifically at St. Francis Xavier Catholic High School in Riverside South. He and Yasir Naqvi, Ottawa-Centre MPP, will soon approach members of provincial parliament and Ontario Education Minister Liz Sandals to request education development surcharges, which are fees collected on new developments, be used to purchase land for new schools rather than continue to go into the general revenue stream. By adding those dollars to the capital fund, there will be more money to build and renovate new schools sooner, Fisher said. Findlay Creek school

Land is zoned and ready for a new elementary school in Findlay Creek. Right now, the project is in the permit phase and a request-for-proposals will be issued to hire an architectural firm. “We allocated $1.3 million in this year’s budget to do all the pre-design work and permitting work with the city to get that project shovel-ready,” said Fisher. “So with Findlay Creek, it’s just a matter of the province just providing its funding for the project, and

we anticipate that it’s going to come soon. “I think it would have happened last year, but there wasn’t enough money for the Ottawa board to fund it, so I think we’re getting pretty close,” he said. The hope is the province will announce in February when the new kindergarten to Grade 8 school will be constructed. The booming population of the community coupled with the fact that Elizabeth Park Public School will be given back to the Department of National Defence in 2017 makes a new school essential, said Fisher. “The next closest school is Sawmill Creek in Blossom Park,” he said. “Some of the kids in Elizabeth Park would be repatriated back to those schools but the large majority would go to a new school in Findlay Creek because that’s where they’re from.” Meeting planned:

The public will be consulted on potential changes to seven attendance boundaries, including new development areas in Riverside South, will be presented at Farley Mowat Public School, located at 75 Waterbridge Dr. in Barrhaven, on Oct. 23 at 7 p.m. For more information, visit ocdsb.ca/sch/as/pages/elementary-alternative-boundary-expansion.aspx. Fisher says this meeting will be the first opportunity to talk about new schools in Findlay Creek and Riverside South.

cally in a hospital bed. Intermediate care is provided to inmates presenting with mental health conditions that cannot be adequately addressed through primary care in an institution, but who do not require hospital care. Primary care is provided to inmates with mental health needs that can be accommodated by services in an institution. All three levels of care are provided by interdisciplinary teams, including mental health professionals such as psychiatrists, nurses, psychologists, social workers, and occupational therapists.

No psychiatric beds closed To the editor:

Re: “Barring treatment for the mentally ill,” Oct. 2. The Correctional Service of Canada wishes to clarify facts reported in the article. Contrary to what the article reports, no mental health beds have been decommissioned. CSC is not closing any beds. CSC is reviewing the organization

and delivery of its mental health services for inmates to ensure the most effective and efficient delivery of quality essential mental health care services for this population. There are three levels of mental health care: hospital care, intermediate care and primary care. Hospital care is provided for inmates with acute mental health concerns requiring inpatient psychiatric care with 24-hour nursing care, typi-

It is possible that this realignment could include a re-allocation of funding previously designated for hospital care to provide support and capacity for intermediate level care within the treatment centres and in mainstream institutions. Matching the service level to patient needs ensures the most efficient use of health resources. The net result will be that services will be better aligned to the health needs of the inmate population, and will allow inmates to transition down to the most appropriate level of care when they need it. CSC is legislatively mandated to

provide inmates with essential health care and reasonable access to nonessential mental health care that will contribute to the inmate’s rehabilitation and successful reintegration into the community. Thank you for the opportunity to provide some clarification on CSC’s treatment of offenders with mental health care needs.

‘A doll means something different to every individual person’ said, ‘I brought $140,000 and there’s nothing to spend it on,’’ she said. “And yet I have bought dolls for 25 cents.” Among doll collectors it is poor etiquette to ask the price a buyer paid. “It’s not about the cost of the item. It’s about the provenance and where it came from and who owned it, perhaps, or where it was made. Is it rare?” Hennigar said. Among the vendors at the upcoming show will be an Almonte-based doll conservator, Lynn Chambers, who specializes in repairing and restoring antique dolls. Taller has relied on her expertise for years. “I consider myself a custodian of these wonderful objects for the next generation,” said Taller. Some of the dolls in her collection date back to the late 1700s.

Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News – Valerie Hennigar and Anne Taller both pause then chuckle when asked how many dolls they each have in their collections. Hennigar, a Barrhaven resident, has collected between 300 and 400 over the past 40 years. Taller, a Kanata resident who has been collecting mostly antique dolls for about 35 years, has about 300. “Quantity doesn’t matter, quality matters,” said Taller. “The thing that matters most is what appeals to you. If you buy what appeals to you, you’ll never make a mistake.” While the advent of e-commerce in the 1990s has connected more sellers and doll collectors and enthusiasts, buyers still relish opportunities to view and compare dolls before they make a purchase. That is one of the reasons Taller and Hennigar are organizing their fourth Ottawa Doll Show and Sale at the Ernst & Young Centre on Oct. 25, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., which will feature about 40 vendors and their wares. “The wonderful thing about a doll show is you get to examine the item, the doll. You get to have a conversation with a vendor,” said Taller. “On the Internet, I have so often seen that

While Taller and Hennigar primarily collect antique dolls, their upcoming show will bring in vendors who will showcase antique to modern dolls made of paper, porcelain and cloth as well as ball-jointed dolls, and those known as reborn dolls that are made to look lifelike – just like real infants. There will also be toys, teddy bears and miniatures. Trains will be a new feature at the event. Among those who attend the show and sale will be collectors, doll enthusiasts and those who buy for their children. “And that’s why we think it’s important at the show to have a really wide variety because your individual tastes, I couldn’t predict what they would be,” said Taller, adding that more than 400 people attended the show and sale held in April. “It’s interesting, you know. A doll means something different

to every individual person,” she said. “So there are those who want dolls from their childhood. There are those who are interested in antiques. There are those who want dolls who can be played with.” For collectors such as Hennigar and Taller, part of the magic in collecting comes from piecing together the doll’s history, and learning about a different era. “Each doll is a little window into its time,” Taller said. “It’s a little microcosm. It tells you the attitude about childhood.” The Ottawa Doll Show and Sale takes place at the Ernst & Young Centre, located at 4899 Uplands Dr. Admission to the event is a minimum $2 donation in support of the Ottawa Food Bank.

EDITORIAL

Time for straight trash talk

s the municipal election campaign has worn on, the more green bins have become one of the most debated issues across the city. A number of candidates, both for council and mayor, have tapped into widespread resentment of the green bin program, which is seen by critics as a costly inconvenience. Many complain the reduction in garbage pickup from once a week to once every other week has led to reeking piles of maggot-infested refuse in garages and back alleys. On top of this, the city auditor revealed earlier this year that the contract with Orgaworld, the company hired to process the organic waste collected in green bins, has resulted in the city paying a great deal more than it should for the program. Yet the candidates pledging to scrap the green bin program and bring back weekly garbage pickup have some more explaining to do. They need to tell voters how they plan to break the contract with Orgaworld without costing the city millions, as was the case when Ottawa paid out nearly $37 million

after cancelling the original light rail plan. Piling waste on top of more waste is no solution. Those candidates will also need to explain how we can continue sending garbage to the dump when plans to expand the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s landfill sites are met with stiff opposition from neighbouring residents. Is the idea to force misery on select rural residents in order to spare urban residents from the stench? Those candidates pledging to ditch the green bin program need to be frank with voters. There will be more costs involved with the cancellation. It will not be a free, easy fix. The green bin program was never meant to entirely halt landfill expansion, only to slow the pace of expansion, thereby saving money for the city. That city staffers failed to ensure the city got a good deal with Orgaworld doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean organics collection is a bad idea â&#x20AC;&#x201C; many other cities in Ontario have similar plans. Voters are of course free to make their own choices. They should only do so knowing the true cost of that decision.

Canada’s hidden shame

nternational numbers that continue to place Canada among the top of its peer countries when it comes to education mask a deep and shameful secret: More than half of the Canadian workforce lack the basic literacy and numeracy skills required to function in their jobs. Despite these abysmal statistics, the federal government has stuck by its decision to stop funding workplace skills training organizations. Last spring, it cut off funding to a number of national and provincial programs and entities designed to improve essential workplace skills, like language, math and problem-solving. The government placed the final nail in the coffin a few months ago, denying core funding to the Canadian Literacy and Learning

Earlier this month, the network was forced to close its doors for good. The demise of the network was somewhat hidden in the back pages of daily newspapers. With ebola, ISIS and elections, perhaps

literacy doesn’t seem a sexy enough sell for the front pages. But make no mistake, this should be front page news. We have a Canadian workforce that is mostly illiterate, innumerate and getting worse. According to a 2012 study by the Organization for Economic Cooperation (OECD), Canada has dropped below the OECD average for both literacy and numeracy competencies. Nearly half (49 per cent) of Canadians lack the literacy skills needed to work, while 60 per cent of Canadians do not have the numeracy skills required to do their jobs. Even more startling, a quarter of Canadians scored at the lowest possible level of numeracy rankings, marking a decline from a decade earlier. A December, 2013 report by TD Economics emphasized the worrying trend that Canadian competencies have deteriorated rather than improved over time, also noting that settled immigrants fare no better than new immigrants on international tests and that many aboriginal Canadians have basically fallen through the cracks when it comes to essential skills. It’s not enough to boost math and reading scores in public schools, because, as a Conference Board of Canada report notes, achieving essential skills required for the workplace is not a static exercise.

LETTER

“Literacy and numeracy skills are not ‘fixed’ forever,” states the report. “Individuals can lose skills after they leave school, through lack of use…In the absence of continuing education or workplace training, it appears likely that, on average, the skills of Canada’s workers diminish over time.” Within a decade, this reality will make its mark on the economy. Skilled workers are healthier, more innovative and, in turn, create more prosperity. If we want to see Canada continue to compete in the global economy, we cannot afford to see our workforce deteriorate. NEWCOMERS

Any federal government that claims to be focused on the economic wellbeing of our country needs to invest in Canadian workers. Newcomers to Canada should be offered language training and bridging programs for free. There needs to be greater resources for Aboriginal Canadians. The government owes it to all of us to create and continuously fund essential workplace skills training in both the private and public sectors. It’s time to unmask the deep and shameful secret of our illiterate and innumerate Canadian workforce. Let’s show that this taboo subject is sexy enough to put it on the front pages so we can force the government to invest our tax dollars where they belong – in us.

Acute care beds at risk To the editor:

Re: “Barring treatment for the mentally ill,” Oct. 2. It is good news that CSC has not yet closed any acute care beds for mentally ill offenders. Notwithstanding, it is clear from the letter that the service is considering transferring resources from acute care to intermediate care. This means that while a bed would not be “closed”, it would be re-purposed and no longer available for in-patient acute care. I support efforts of the correctional service to finally fund the intermediate care component of its mental health strategy but I am concerned if it does so at the expense of its already burdened acute care capacity.

Ottawa airport screening passengers for Ebola virus Enhanced screening measures targeting travellers from West African nations

Health Agency of Canada spokesperson said in an email, adding that enhanced screening will be implemented for travellers arriving from Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia, which are at the centre of the Ebola outbreak. “All travelers from Ebolaaffected countries will undergo a mandatory health assessment and be asked a series of health-related and exposure questions,” the agency official said. Ambrose’s statement came the same day the United States announced enhanced airport screening for Ebola and that extra personnel would be put in place at five American airports, including JFK International Airport in New York City. That airport receives more than 94 percent of travellers from Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone. Screening will also be conducted at Washington-Dulles, Newark, Chicago-O’Hare and Atlanta airports.

News - While there are no direct flights into Canada from Ebola-affected West African nations, passengers arriving at six Canadian airports, including the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport, are now being screened for signs of the potentially deadly viral infection. Federal Health Minister Rona Ambrose announced Oct. 8 that “targeted temperature screening” at Canadian borders would be conducted. “All individuals arriving in Canada from Ebolaaffected countries will have their temperature taken by a quarantine officer,” a Public

vealed the same day a Liberian man died from Ebola in a Texas hospital. In Canada, quarantine officers are now present at six airports, including Ottawa, Montreal, Toronto, Halifax, Calgary and Vancouver, which receive the most international travellers. Quarantine officers will also be available to respond remotely around the clock in support of Canada border officers who are stationed at all Canadian air, land and sea entry points. Travellers coming into Canada from affected West African nations will be identified and asked about their health, in keeping with Canada’s Quarantine Act, Dr. Gregory Taylor, Canada’s chief public health officer, said in an Oct. 8 statement. “If these travellers are ill or identify as having been in contact with an ill person, they will be referred to a Public Health Agency of Canada quarantine officer,” he said.

“Quarantine officers have the necessary training and equipment, including temperature-monitoring devices, to conduct a health assessment and determine whether additional health measures are required.” Those travellers to Canada who say they are sick or have been exposed will have their temperature checked. One of the symptoms of Ebola is the quick onset of a high temperature of at least 38C. “There has never been a case of Ebola in Canada, and the risk to Canadians remains very low,” Taylor said. “I want to reassure Canadians that the risk of Ebola has not changed and remains very low, and we will consider any additional measures needed to protect Canadians.” Public health officials say the virus does not spread easily from person to person, and can only be caught through direct contact with infected bodily fluids.

Enterovirus D68 cases at CHEO climb to 12 R0012941730-1016

All patients have been treated and released Erin McCracken

Since late August, 12 patients at CHEO have tested positive for enterovirus D68, which presents like a common cold but can cause wheezing and breathing difficulties in some children with asthma. The patients have all been treated and released. ing that muscle paralysis and weakness also appear with other types of viruses. “What is unusual is to see some clusters.” The CHEO cases involving EV-D68 were positively tested at the national microbiology laboratory in Winnipeg. The results, which take weeks to come back, are beneficial for researchers and those studying epidemics, but do not alter the course of treatment in hospital. “Even if we could get (the test results) instantly, it wouldn’t change the treatment because there’s no vaccine or specific treatment for this strain,” Schacherl said. From now on, CHEO will only send away samples to test for EV-D68 in serious cases “because that is consistent with what other hospitals are doing,” she said. “So we’ve … got that information in terms of, ‘Are we (just) seeing just D68? No, we’re seeing a mix (of differ-

ent viruses),’ so now we can just move forward knowing that that’s the case,” Schacherl said. “It wouldn’t make sense for us to continue testing every patient with a respiratory illness.” CHEO announced on Sept. 24 it was taking extra precautions to prevent the spread of infection after three patients came down with respiratory illnesses while already in hospital. Every fall, when children return to school, CHEO sees a spike in the number of respiratory illnesses in the emergency room. In September, visits were up seven per cent compared to last year. About 25 per cent of visits to the ER last month were for respiratory illness, up from 16 per cent last year. “So we’re up a bit from the last year, but not hugely out of the ordinary,” Schacherl said, adding the hospital is seeing a mix of different viruses. With the outbreak over, the

hospital no longer has special precautions in place. “We just have ongoing infection prevention measures which do include some rules around visitors, number of visitors, hand hygiene, cleaning – all the things we do on an ongoing basis,” Schacherl said. In cases involving severe respiratory illness, patients may be placed in isolation. “It’s really case by case,” she said. “It’s based on the actual patient and what symptoms they present.” What you can do:

CHEO recommends staying home when ill, regular hand washing and using hand sanitizer. People with breathing difficulties should visit the emergency room, but those with common cold symptoms are advised to visit a walk-in medical clinic or their family doctor.

R0012935070-1016

News - Eight patients have been treated for enterovirus D68 at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario, bringing the total to 12 since August. “I wouldn’t call it an increase because that’s out of the batch of tests that we sent and we stepped up the number of people who were being tested (in which) the samples were being sent,” said CHEO spokeswoman, Eva Schacherl. “It’s what we expected to see or maybe even a little less.” CHEO first announced it had treated four people with the EV-D68 virus strain in late August, and early September. Symptoms are similar to the common cold, but can cause wheezing and breathing difficulties in some children who have asthma. The most recent group of patients remained in hospital between two and six days, which she said “is not really out of the ordinary.” Schacherl did not know the ages of the patients. When asked if their symptoms were severe, she said, “From the parent’s perspective, when their child is hospitalized it’s traumatic and it’s serious, but for us in terms of the range of cases that we see we’re not seeing anything out of the ordinary. “We see respiratory illness every year that can require hospitalization.” In the U.S., while clusters of patients with the EV-D68 strain of the virus have suffered from muscle weakness and paralysis, in follow-ups here, CHEO patients have not shown any neurological symptoms or symptoms that are out of the ordinary, Schacherl said. “We haven’t seen it, thank goodness. We’re going to be continuing to monitor that and look out for it,” she said, add-

First World War artifacts tour high schools across Canada Continued from page 1

As Grade 10 student Adnan Memic, 15, right, looks on, Josh Heritage, 14, tries on a Mark I helmet, a style of helmet used by British Empire forces, including Canadian soldiers, during the First World War. agreed. The kit also included an album of photos and other keepsakes from the war that once belonged to a 19-year-old soldier with Canada’s militia who eagerly signed up to fight and was shipped overseas. Will van Allen, from Saskatchewan, chronicled his journey with camera in hand until he was badly wounded and sent home. His private photos are O’Quinn’s favourite part of the discovery boxes. “It’s not as flashy as the gas alarm rattle,” she said with a laugh, but she relishes the moments the amateur photographer captured on film and the detail he put into his captions. “His captions are hilarious,” said O’Quinn. “He’s got pictures of sheep and the caption says, ‘The savage beasts of Salisbury Plains.’” Inside each treasure box are laminated photographs that depict how the items were used during the war. This came in handy when the students were handed long strips of brown cloth. Working in pairs, each student wound the strips around their partner’s arm. “It looks like a bandage,” Grade 10 student Alex Ray said. But when handed the photo of a young soldier sitting on the side of the road, the students quickly zeroed in on the soldier’s legs wrapped in the cloth strips, and quickly figured out the material was part of his uniform. “So it shows the object being used during the First World

War,” O’Quinn said. “Those photos are an artifact in themselves because they represent official Canadian war records.” Another student squealed and jumped in surprise as her classmate swung a wooden object resembling a New Year’s noisemaker. Everyone winced but immediately wanted a turn as Grade 12 student Tyler Watungwa created a sharp staccato sound, replicating the noise that warned soldiers a gas attack was imminent and they needed to don their gas masks. “We knew we had a great product and we were hoping that it would resonate with students,” O’Quinn said of the popular artifacts. Grade 10 teacher DoriAnne Leafloor, who is also Brookfield’s department head of Canadian world studies and business and computer studies, was pleasantly surprised with the students’ enthusiasm for the historical pieces. “This is why I teach because I love when the students are engaging and asking questions,” she said. “They’ve made connections to work that we had done earlier in the week in terms of what life was like in the trenches,” Leafloor said. “And now with the artifacts, they’re able to ask questions that they weren’t able to earlier, just by being able to touch and see and have that experience.” To request a discovery box or for more details, visit warmuseum.ca/supplyline.

Students and staff at Brookfield High School plug their ears as Grade 12 student Tyler Watungwa works a noisy gas alarm rattle. The rattles were used to warn First World War soldiers of impending gas attacks. The artifact is among several items being made available to Canadian schools for two-week periods at no cost by the Canadian War Museum.

The experience of trying on the war artifact allowed Abozkar to imagine himself in the boots of a Canadian soldier 100 years ago. He was among 24 students who passed around shell casings, a nurse’s apron, soldier’s jacket and cap, a gas mask, gas alarm rattle and trench periscope, but not before trying them out or trying them on. The authentic and replica First World War objects are among 22 items included in 25 identical discovery boxes the Canadian War Museum is making available for the first time to students in grades four to 12 across Canada. The boxes, which commemorate the 100th anniversary of the First World War, are made possible thanks to support from individual donors and Operation Veteran, which supports educational programs at the museum and in Canadian schools. The Supply Line kits officially launched at Brookfield High School on Thursday, Oct. 9, but schools have been reserving the boxes since Sept. 16. They are loaned out for free for two weeks and are already fully booked into December. “In a museum all of our objects are behind glass windows so we want you to be able to handle these things, try them on, touch them and that’s the idea,” museum learning specialist Sandra O’Quinn said before guiding the Brookfield students through the lesson plan. Just before handing out the treasures, she encouraged the teens to ask questions and make observations in order to teach them to think like a historian. In addition to the artifacts, the boxes come with learning materials and lesson plans. Grade 10 students Amnar Abozkar and Zina Benazzouz, both 15 years old, enjoyed the experience of going beyond the textbook. “In history class we usually get like paperwork, but when we see it hands on you get the feeling how it was a long time ago,” Abozkar said, adding that the lessons they learned through the discovery boxes built on what he and his classmates already studied in class. “You get to see what people used in the past,” Benazzouz

Race day inspires kids, youth to think locally, act globally Erin McCracken erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News - When Karen Hill sees children and teenagers decked out in their race T-shirts tears well up in her eyes. Many have been saving their birthday money or have set up lemonade stands throughout the year to support South Ottawa Race Day, which Hill and her event co-organizer Karen Sinclair launched in 2012 after they lost a close friend to glioblastoma melanoma or GBM, a fast-acting brain tumour. “It’s become something that the kids feel is their own in their community,” Hill said of the support the event has received from generations of people in Riverside South and beyond, particularly among high school students. “It’s obviously about brain cancer but for our kids it’s more about getting involved in helping those who are less fortunate than us, promoting in our community that ‘thinking locally, acting globally’ kind of idea,” Hill said.

“We love, love, love the fact that we have so many young people participating in the event. I think it’s part of what sets us apart from other events in that we really gear ourselves to the younger population. We want them to feel that this is their event.” The organizing committee is prepping for the third-annual race day on Sunday, Oct. 26 at the Rideau Carleton Raceway. About 1,300 participants have signed up for one- and twokilometre family run/walks, the ﬁve- and 10-kilometre runs and a half-marathon. The inaugural event drew 1,000 people and last year just under that number took part. This year, the event has attracted runners from Orleans to Kanata and beyond the National Capital Region to Kingston and Toronto. It’s still too soon to know just how much money the event will generate this year, said Hill. “A lot of fundraising happens those last couple of weeks.” Since its inception, South Ottawa Race Day has gener-

It’s hard to even fathom that that money came in

– just the generosity. “What it makes me realize is that we really did ﬁnd a cause that people care about and want to put their support behind.” Glioblastoma melanoma is

considered a low-proﬁle cancer, and part of the challenge for researchers is that it grows quickly and steals lives just as fast. “We don’t hear about it as much and so this (event) has provided an (opportunity) that allows those people to support a particular type of cancer that has affected them personally,” said Hill. During South Ottawa Race Day, the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation will be teaming up with Tiny Hoppers daycare to put on a children’s activity section, where there will be games, face painting and relay races. Runners will go through a group warm-up and then head off on their routes. And while top ﬁnishers of each race will receive prizes ranging from RedBlacks football tickets to a three-month boot camp, among others, everyone will receive a medal and a T-shirt. Three years ago, organizers had no idea how successful the event would become, helping bring people together in support

of a worthy cause, said Hill. Emails come in on a daily basis from people who share their experiences about GBM. “Just the personal stories make you feel like ‘OK, this is something that’s going to continue to grow,” said Hill. “We really kind of found our followers and feel that we owe it to them to keep this event going so that they have a place to feel like they’re supporting the people they know who’ve been affected.” Hill and Sinclair’s friend Heather Geddie and others close to the event organizers who have lost their lives to glioblastoma melanoma are never far from their thoughts. “No matter how stressful or complicated (the race day) gets we always think of them,” said Hill. “They are deﬁnitely our inspiration.” South Ottawa Race Day takes place Oct. 26. Registration closes Oct. 22. For details, to volunteer or make a donation, visit southottawaraceday. ca. Rideau Carleton Raceway is located at 4837 Albion Rd.

Outreach expansion helping vulnerable seniors Nurses, community health workers provide free house calls Erin McCracken

erin.mccracken@metroland.com

News – Every time registered nurse Patricia BarrettRobillard knocks at Hope Wilson’s door, the 90-yearold Alta Vista resident knows she will be in good hands

during the house call. Barrett-Robillard has been helping Wilson stay healthy and continue living independently for about three years as part of the Primary Care Outreach for Seniors Program offered by the SouthEast Ottawa Community Health Centre. “I wasn’t feeling well and by the time she left I felt better,” Wilson said of BarrettRobillard’s first home visit. “She looks into my medication and I have a feeling that things are straightened out and things are working right. “And if there’s a problem she’ll look into it. She’ll contact the doctor, which I’m not

The health centre was one of 11 sites to receive more than $1.2 million last November from the Champlain Local Health Integration Network to expand the program regionally. Since then primary care outreach teams of registered nurses and community health workers have been helping more than 1,000 vulnerable seniors 65 and older receive help with their complex care needs, such as cognitive im-

Six new sites have been added thanks to the funding, including the South Nepean satellite of the PinecrestQueensway Community Health Centre, the Eastern Ottawa and Western Ottawa community resource centres, and the North Lanark, Seaway Valley and Sandy Hill

community health centres. “When the expansion is fully implemented, we will support another 1,000 seniors bringing the total seniors supported to 2,000 across our region,” said Leslie McDiarmid, executive director of the South-East Ottawa Community Health Centre. The money is paying for health-care outreach teams as well as a centralized referral intake process. “I can tell you it will not take us long to reach 2,000,” McDiarmid said. “In September alone we had 175 referrals.”

Seniors’ needs were not being adequately cared for when the Local Health Integrated Networks became responsible for funding and planning regional health-care services a few years ago, said Chantale LeClerc, chief executive officer of the Champlain Local Health Integrated Network. The organization manages more than $2.5 billion in funding which flows through organizations such as the community health centres, and works to better integrate health-care services. “We saw far too many seniors visiting emergency departments for the kinds of things that

Money from the provincial government’s aging and home strategy initiative allowed the health networks to work with partners to improve seniors’ health, and help them connect them to services, particularly after hospital stays. Despite seeing a difference, there was concern that the most vulnerable seniors, such as those living on their own, weren’t receiving enough care, prompting the 2009 launch of the Primary Care Outreach for Seniors Pro-

News - Local ballet dancers got their chance to shine on Oct. 4 thanks to annual casting call by Ballet Jorgen at the Nepean Creative Arts Centre in Bells Corners. The company puts on an annual musical each December, called The Nutcracker, A Canadian Tradition. The production will go live at the Centrepointe and Shenkman theatres from Dec. 13 to 15. The play is modelled on the traditional Nutcracker story, but Ballet Jorgen dances through the magnificent landscapes of Canada with stunning backdrops that highlight masterpieces by the Group of Seven. Audiences are taken on

Klara’s magical dream journey as she experiences a Canadian winter filled with enchanted snowflakes, lumberjacks, Mounties and creatures of the forest. There are a core of six dancers from the company’s home base in Toronto, but as the company tours the province, they cast nearly 20 dancers from ages eight to 17 in roles such as frogs and dragon flies. “The frogs are typically for the younger dancers and require less skill,” said Clea Iveson, the education manager for Ballet Jorgen, adding even the audition is a wonderful experience. Prospective dancers were evaluated by as many as three volunteer judges. They are judged on everything from

Organizers host 600 events across the country each year. “We ensure communities large and small, urban and rural, have access to a ballet experience that is recognized for its innovation, warmth and beauty,” Iveson said. Ballet Jorgen has existed since 1995 and has been performing The Nutcracker for the last five years.

News - Mayor Jim Watson says he has a solution for a problem city councillors spent much of the last term bickering over – traffic calming. In a campaign announcement on Oct. 3, Watson said he’d boost road-safety funding by $6 million in the next term of council, including ward-specific pools of money that would give councillors control to pay for small projects aimed at increasing street safety and alleviating traffic congestion. The money would pay for 20 new red-light cameras to be added in the next four years, Watson said, bringing the total number of cameras to 53. The funding promise would also increase money for the Safer Roads Ottawa department from $75,000 to $500,000 annually.

Renewed pressure for citywide or ward-specific funds for traffic-calming measures stepped up after a transportation committee meeting in March, when the committee punted the issue to councillors to deal with using their $241,508 annual office budgets. That decision was largely

based on the success of a traffic-calming project undertaken by Alta Vista Coun. Peter Hume, who spent $4,468 of his office budget on such measures over the last two years. At that meeting, councillors made it clear that a more sustainable source of funding needed to be identified in next year’s budget. Paying for stop-gap measures is a reoccurring conversation at city council. Council discussed creating a $30,000 traffic management fund for each ward in 2012, but instead decided on a one-time citywide $2.5 million fund to address a backlog of problems. The discussion in March clearly frustrated retiring Innes Coun. Rainer Bloess, who has repeatedly said he was in favour of ward-specific traffic-calming funds that councillors would control. “We wouldn’t be having this debate if we followed through with what this committee originally decided, which got nixed by the mayor’s office,” Bloess said at the time.

The average woman applies more than 500 chemicals to her body every day.

Every day millions of women slap on body moisturizer, apply lipstick or mascara without a second thought about what they are putting on their skin. A study from the UK claims that the average woman applies more than 500 chemicals to her body every day during her beauty routine.

Why should you be concerned?

Chemicals such as parabens (a synthetic preservative in everything from toothpaste to shampoo) and phthalates (a class of chemicals that are found in many “fragranced” beauty products such as lotions, perfumes and deodorants) are classified as xenoestrogens. Xenoestrogens mimic our natural estrogens creating hormone chaos by increasing the total amount of estrogen, resulting in a condition called estrogen dominance. Estrogen dominance has been implicated in many conditions including: breast and prostate cancer, obesity, infertility, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, early onset puberty, hormonal acne and PMS.

Chaudière rezoning OK’ed despite critics’ pleas Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - After hearing positive feedback about Windmill’s proposed Chaudière and Albert islands redevelopment, members of the planning committee were caught off guard by dozens of people who showed up to oppose the project during an Oct. 2 planning committee meeting. In the end, both the planning committee and full city council approved the rezoning to allow the plan to move forward. Although Windmill’s Jeff Westiende said the developer’s consultations, which attracted more than 1,000 people, didn’t receive any major opposition from groups including the Algonquins of Ontario, 47 delegates signed up to speak in opposition of the major redevelopment plan, which would see the former industrial paper-mill islands and part of the Quebec waterfront transformed into a mixed-use community built with ecologically friendly aspirations. The site is around 650 metres north of the LeBreton Transitway station (the future Pimisi light-rail station) at the end of Booth Street. If the development is approved and built, it would become home to 1,200 residen-

tial units, 17,000 square metres of ofﬁce space and 4,800 square metres of retail space. That didn’t appease critics who attended the planning committee meeting. Many invoked the vision of the late William Commanda, chief of the Kitigàn-zìbì Anishinàbeg First Nation. Commanda wanted to honor the sacred site called Asinabka – which refers to the Chaudière Falls, Chaudière Island, and Victoria Island – by redeveloping the area with an indigenous centre, a regional and national history centre and a conference facility. Capital Coun. David Chernushenko summed up the issue during the council meeting on Oct. 8: “I can’t ﬁnd the words to say how awkward this situation is.” But Chernushenko, Somerset Coun. Diane Holmes – whose ward includes the project – and other councillors agreed the plan was the best way to move forward, especially because they felt the city could have a good working and negotiating relationship with the developer, Windmill. The item was up for discussion at the meeting because the 7.3-hectare property, paper-mill owner Domtar sold to Windmill in December of 2013, is currently zoned as parkland, even though

SACRED SITE

During the Oct. 2 planning committee meeting, speaker after speaker implored the committee to reject the application, saying the land should be kept as parkland until a broader discussion on how to implement Commanda’s vision can be found. “This has been a sacred site,” said Judith Matheson, who described herself as a student of Commanda’s. “This was their Mecca.” “Look into your hearts as to whether you are doing the right thing,” said Phil Weir, another speaker. Others worried that the development would “privatize” Chaudière Falls and restrict access to the waterfall to only those rich enough to live in the new development. Westiende said Windmill’s goal is to make the site accessible to everyone. He said the company is open to dialog about how to improve its proposed community, which it is calling the Isles. Biola Smith, one of the speakers,

We are in the world – this is the way it is,” she said. “It is a nice development, but I believe, in the city there must be another place.” In November of 2010, the city’s community and protective services commit-

LAURA MUELLER/METROLAND

Orléans resident Brenda Turner and National Capital Commission staffer Larry Yarema look over plans for improved pedestrian and cyclist access to Richmond Landing and Victoria and Amelia islands during a public meeting on Oct. 7.

NCC plans footbridge, path access to hidden island ‘gems’ Laura Mueller laura.mueller@metroland.com

News - Three new footbridges and improvements and additions to pathways on the islands near the Portage Bridge will provide better access to the city’s “hidden gems,” according to the National Capital Commission. The federal agency has $10 million to put towards the project, set to be completed by Canada’s 150th birthday in 2017, so it’s finally putting its longstanding vision of improving access to Victoria and Amelia islands into action, said Stephen Willis, executive director of the NCC’s planning branch. Willis said he hopes the underappreciated area becomes something as vibrant as Toronto’s distillery district one day.

“So few people who live in the capital have visited this part of the area,” he said. “What we want people to do is appreciate the incredible history in this area – both the First Nations history and the early colonization history and really how this place evolved with industrial history.” A public consultation and tour held on Oct. 7 drew at least 100 people to the Mill St. Brew Pub, which is in the middle of the area to be improved. Many in attendance said they had a heightened awareness about the area and any potential development due to the city’s recent, but unrelated, discussion and approval of development company Windmill’s proposed plans for a mixed-use community on the adjacent privately owned Chaudière and Albert islands.

That discussion brought 47 people to a meeting of the city’s planning committee to express their opposition for the development project. Many of them spoke in favour of late Kitigàn-zìbì Anishinàbeg First Nation chief William Commanda’s vision for the islands, including an aboriginal meeting place or centre. The public access plan for the NCC-owned Victoria and Amelia islands and Richmond’s Landing is not related to Windmill’s development, nor is it is precursor to any new development at those locations, Willis said. Rather, it’s part of a larger theme the NCC is focusing on under the new chief executive, Mark Kristmanson: public access to the Ottawa River. See PEDESTRIAN, page 31

Woman charged with Pedestrian links planned sexual assault Continued from page 29

Allegedly had relationship with student Staff

with the Ottawa Carleton District School Board. Police allege she had a sexual relationship with a student who was 15 years old. An investigation revealed the relationship began in September 2011. The school board has confirmed that the suspect is in their employ and has placed her on leave pending the resolution of the charges. “The OCDSB is cooperating fully with the OPS to assist in their investigation,” the statement reads. “The accused has been placed on leave while the investigation is underway. Our primary focus is the safety and well-being of our students and staff and the district will make resources and supports available to those in need.” The accused is listed as an educational assistant on Sir Robert Borden High School’s website. In addition to the sexual assault and sexual assault charges, the accused was charged with telecommunication with a person under 18 for specific criminal offences – possibly for phone calls and text messages. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Ottawa police sexual assault unit at 6132361222, ext. 5944 or phone Crime Stoppers at 613-233-8477.

But Willis noted that the improved connections could help promote access to the site both the NCC and city have supported as a potential future meeting place or centre for aboriginal people. “I think William Commanda’s plan is incredibly visionary and compelling,” Willis said. “It’s going to take a lot of players doing a lot of things to make it ultimately come together. I think we’re doing our part here right now.” PLANS

The plans presented by the NCC include: • Fixes to the crumbling Bronson pulp mill ruins beside the Mill St. pub • A pedestrian and cycling bridge from the ruins across the Bronson Channel to Amelia Island, where a hydro generating station and an old logging chute are located • A series of two more footbridges on the east side of the

BE INTERACTIVE

Portage Bridge to connect the pathway system to Richmond Landing – the location of the navy monument – and across the channel to Victoria Island • A canoe/kayak dock at Richmond Landing; pathway and water access improvements on the south shore of Victoria Island • A switchback ramp to provide universal accessibility from the Wellington/Portage intersection to the paths east of the intersection The projects are intended to highlight the aboriginal and natural heritage of the islands, recognize the military presence in the region and showcase the manufacturing and power generation industries that kickstarted Ottawa’s development into a capital city. Somerset Coun. Diane Holmes, who represents the area, said she has told NCC officials she thinks the approximately $10-million price tag is unrealistic if it wants to construct three footbridges, new pathways and a switchback ramp on the east

side of the Portage-Wellington intersection. Willis said the final cost won’t be known until the project is put out to tender, but he thinks something in the order of $10 million is reasonable. “These are not signature bridges – they are more modest placements,” he said. IDEAS

The consultation was held to assess whether members of the public generally liked the plans and see if they had any ideas for improvements. Some people who attended expressed concerns about proposed clearing of brush along the shorelines and around an old logging chute that separates Amelia Island and a hydro generating station from Victoria Island. Willis said an ecological study is underway to ensure that important species are protected and he added that any clearing would be minimal in order to provide public access to the waterfront.

$1.2 million worth of marijuana plants hidden is farmers’ fields Yearly search helps to cripple organized crime Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

News - Ottawa police discovered $1.2 million worth of marijuana plants hidden in two farmers’ fields near Kanata during a yearly aerial search of the city this fall. A total of 1,200 marijuana plants were seized after the police’s air support unit spotted the plants growing within two farmers’ crops. The smaller crop of marijuana, about 300 plants, was located west of Bells Corners, with the second found in the rural south-west area of the city, said acting Staff Sgt. Ian McDonell with the Ottawa police drug unit. “We don’t like to give out the (exact) location because next year, kids in the area will start heading out and wandering through the woods hoping to find a load of marijuana,” he said. Similarly, McDonell said he could not say exactly when police discovered and removed the plants, as that would indicate to marijuana grow operators when to remove their crops. “We don’t like to tip our hand,” said McDonell. “It was just in the early part of the fall.” There are no suspects related to the discovery so far, according to a police news release. “(With regards to) both land owners, we have nothing whatsoever to

indicate that they were aware of anything going on,” said McDonell. The discovery was made during the police’s annual fall eradication search which has police officers fly over Ottawa in search of potential outdoor marijuana crops. “Normally what happens is (marijuana grow operators) will go into farmers’ fields and they will go once the corn crop starts getting a little bit high, say June,” said McDonell. “They will want to go sort of in the middle of the field and they will clear an area of corn and plant the marijuana plants,” he said. “Farmers, they plant their corn in the spring and they come back and get it in the fall, so it’s not like people are going through those fields, so the marijuana grows up, the corn grows up around it, and (marijuana growers) come in and sneak it out before the farmers cut out their corn harvest,” said McDonell. For more than a decade Ottawa police have been using tips from the NCC and other organizations along with aerial searches to locate potential marijuana crops. This year’s two-day marijuana eradication project netted fewer plants than in past years, but that is actually a good sign, said McDonell. “I think that’s partly due to the

efforts of the past years,” he said. “These guys don’t like losing (product) worth $1.2 million. That’s a lot of money to show up one morning and it’s gone. So that kind of makes them reconsider their strategy. They move out to different areas. “We are not going to get everything. We are fully aware of that, but we are pretty confident that we have taken out the bigger crops that we can come across.” McDonell said he is very satisfied with the results of this year’s operation, saying funds from the marijuana plants otherwise would likely have gone into organized crime. “I can say from experience, they are not just going out and buying a big screen TV (with their profits),” he said. “We don’t have anything specific to this investigation, but just in general terms, they are using this money to buy cocaine, they are using this money to buy crack, they are using it to buy guns, prostitution, human trafficking, you name it - any kind of criminal enterprise, that’s what this goes into. So when we can say that we took $1.2 million of financing that goes behind so many other criminal enterprises, we are very satisfied.” The ultimate goal of the fall eradication program is to push marijuana grow operations hours away from the city, said McDonell.

Speaker talks about triumph over tragedy The Jewish Federation of Ottawa to kick off women’s fundraising campaign jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

News - Lynda Fishman’s life changed forever when she was 13 years old. Her mother and two younger sisters were killed while on an Air Canada ﬂight from Montreal to California in 1970. “I was faced with tremendous tragedy and loss and there were no resources,” Fishman said, adding her father retreated into his grief. Fishman, who turned her tragedy into a career as an inspirational speaker, will give the opening address at Choices, the annual Jewish Federation of Ottawa’s women’s

fundraising campaign. The theme for the event is positivity, persistence and patience, and is set to take place at the Augdath Israel Congregation at 1400 Coldrey Ave. on Oct. 28 at 6 p.m. Choices celebrates the impact that women can make in the community and demonstrates the personal commitment that these women make to Jewish life, said event chair Shari Silber. Silber, who lives in Nepean now, said she contacted Fishman because she lived beside her in Montreal when the tragedy happened. “Her sister Carla was my best friend,” Silber said. Silber found out about the tragedy

my mother and my sisters. Their stuff was cleared out of the house. It was like they never existed.” It wasn’t until the loss of a job she was particularly attached to that Fishman decided to write Repairing Rainbows: A True Story of Family, Tragedy and Choices. “It was very emotional to write it, and difficult, I was forced to go back to that time,” Fishman said. “I listened to a lot of ’50s, ’60s and ’70s music. It helped me to recall my emotions.” Fishman said she didn’t really get a chance to talk with others about what happened until a memorial on the 40th anniversary of the crash. Silber said she reconnected with Fishman five years ago and was struck by how much her son resembled her late friend. “I looked at photos of him on Facebook and saw Carla’s face,” Silber said. “Lynda has made so much of her life despite the tragedy. She has made a choice to be happy. It seemed like a perfect fit for the event.” Fishman said she sold her summer daycamp business to be an inspira-

The Royal announces new tool in battle against suicide Steph Willems

steph.willems@metroland.com

News - The fight to understand and prevent suicide received a large boost on Oct. 8, thanks to a charitable foundation, a local fundraising initiative, The Royal, and a sizeable cash donation. Do It For Daron and the Mach-Gaensslen Foundation each contributed $1 million to help create a research chair dedicated to the study of suicide prevention. Once formed, the DIFD Mach-Gaensslen Chair in Suicide Prevention Research at The Royal will consult experts, community partners and families to build a list of best practices aimed at reducing instances of suicide. In a media release, George Weber, president and chief executive of The Royal, stated that mortality rates from suicide have remained constant while those from cancer and heart disease have diminished. “As a statistic, this is staggering and it becomes even more troubling when we remind ourselves that each suicide is

a loved one lost and a family devastated,” said Weber. “We need to get better at preventing suicide. Better prevention can only be achieved through the knowledge and understanding brought about by research.”

“In its purest form, this chair is about saving lives, and putting in place the appropriate treatments to prevent suicides” Karen Monoghan

“In its purest form, this chair is about saving lives, and putting in place the appropriate treatments to prevent suicides,” said Karen Monoghan, spokeswoman for The Royal. Monoghan said The Royal wants to have the chair in place “as soon as possible,” and will now embark on a recruitment process to ensure the best can-

didate is chosen. The position should be filled in six months to a year. The twin donations make up part of The Royal’s $25 million annual Capital Campaign for Mental Health, and will establish the chair position for a period of 10 years. “We’re looking for a clinician and researcher who will stay connected, part of the time, to clinical practice,” said Monoghan. “This way, the research will be translated into real solutions.” Part of the job of the research chair will be to seek out medical grants, she said, in order to keep the position active for longer than the 10-year time frame. Do It For Daron was formed in the wake of the 2010 suicide of Daron Richardson, the 14-year-old daughter of former Ottawa Senators assistant coach Luke Richardson. Since then, Luke and Stephanie Richardson have raised funds to bolster resources for youth mental health.

Program brings Richardsons hope Continued from page 35

Among the initiatives that have benefitted from this are The Royal’s youth-targeted Healthy Minds phone app and the “Is It Just Me?” youth mental health program. “Seeing the chair in Suicide Prevention Research

come to fruition at The Royal brings us great hope – hope that other families can avoid the horrific despair of losing someone to suicide,” said the Richardsons in a released statement. “DIFD is able to support this life-saving research initiative only because of the vast and overwhelming

support that the Ottawa community and others have given us.” The Mach-Gaensslen Foundation of Canada was formed in 2000 to support research in the fields of cardiology, oncology and psychiatry. This is its largest donation to date.

Stay organized in the back to school chaos It’s the start of a new school year, a time of new beginnings, and also a time of stress and chaos. Tips for getting organized now generally fall into three categories: organizing your space, organizing your stuff and organizing your time. Get your home http:// www.4ottawahomes.com/ index.php ready for school. Have a “landing pad” for shoes, backpack, etc. after school, which also becomes a “launching pad” for busy mornings. A dedicated space with hooks and shelves can minimize the mess, and avoid “I can’t find my shoes!” in the morning. Have a spot just for school papers and permission slips. In the kitchen, have an area for storing lunch supplies and prepping lunches. Another good space to have is a dedicated homework area, that is quiet, well lit, and

has supplies close at hand. Stock up on school supplies before school starts, but don’t forget to keep track of them and replace as needed. Keep all school and office supplies in one handy location. Put labels on all your kid’s belongings like shoes, backpacks, pencil cases, etc. Organizing kids clothing means taking an inventory of what they have that still fits, and making a list of what needs replacing. Stick to a basic colour scheme for each child so outfits can be easily co-ordinated. Organize younger kid’s clothes a week at a time and set them in piles on a shelf or drawer. In the morning it’s grab and go. Routines are essential for busy families. Start good habits now and try to keep them going. Sunday night prepare for the

Ottawa boy wins the shopping spree of a lifetime Local cancer patient to make three minute toy dash Michelle Nash

michelle.nash@metroland.com

News - Liam Elder has only three-minutes to grab as many toys as possible. The young boy will be one of eight children across Canada with the chance to spend 180 seconds grabbing all they can at Toys “R” Us stores. The toys are donated by the toy store as part of its 16 year support of Starlight Children’s Foundation Canada -- a foundation which provides families and children family-centered programs and services from hospital to home. A Glebe resident, Liam will go to the Toys “R” Us at St. Laurent Shopping Centre on Oct. 21. His father, Peter Elder, said they plan to map out the store so they can get as many of the toys on Liam’s list as possible. For Liam, Elder said it will be all about Lego when the clock starts. “He really likes Lego,” Elder said. “When he found out he was picked, he went on the Toys “R” Us website to figure out what he needs and where he needs to be in the store.” Liam was first diagnosed with

Starlight Children’s Foundation Canada child Myah spent three minutes in a Toronto Toys ‘R’ Us grabbing as many toys as her grocery cart could hold. The foundation will give eight more seriously ill children in Canada, including Glebe resident Liam Elder the opportunity to do the same this Oct. 21. leukemia in 2011. He finished his first treatment in October 2013 and for nine months Liam was cancer-free.

Elder said they found out the cancer came back this past July. Liam’s cancer is rare, his father said -- it’s called Philadelphia chro-

mosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia -- but the family is expecting to go to Toronto for a stem cell transplant once Liam’s health is stable enough. This upcoming toy dash means a lot of to Liam and to the family, Elder said. “It’s something fun to do and exciting and something that is not related to hospitals and being sick,” Elder said. “Most of his days are circling around treatment and being at CHEO.” The eight seriously ill children were randomly selected as part of a contest run by Starlight. The children have the opportunity to snag as many toys as they can, with a cap of $3,000. The toy dashes will take place in five cities across Canada: Edmonton, Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto and Vancouver. “Special events like the 3-Minute Dash provide Starlight children with a chance to create much-needed positive memories away from the hospital, treatments and therapies,” said Brian Bringolf, Starlight’s executive director. According to Toys “R” Us Canada’s president Kevin Macnab, offering children a toy shopping spree is the perfect escape from the hospital. “As they race through the aisles and experience a fun and unique opportunity that they will never forget,” Macnab said. Over the past 16 years, Toys “R” Us has raised more than $12 million

for Starlight. In addition to offering the threeminute dash, the store has helped sponsor 101 hospital grants (monetary funding to support distractive entertainment for hospitalized children), 10,500 ER admit kits (a variety of care products for children and parents during unexpected hospital stays), 7,000 Baby & Toddler Fun Kits (cuddly toys and games to distract very young children during unpleasant hospital stays), 10 Fun Centers (mobile entertainment units featuring a flat-screen television, a DVD player, a Nintendo Wii gaming system and a wide variety of games), $150,000 in Great Escapes Sponsorships (a program that provides Starlight families with a chance to enjoy fun events together to create priceless memories, relax and then return home with a renewed sense of strength and hope) and 100 Starlight Treasure Chests (boxes filled with toys and surprises, used by children during appointments at the hospital or clinic). Liam most recently underwent surgery related to his illness and Elder said the family is looking forward to the 10-year-old having something else to focus on. “He is very brave about things. Brave in terms of, the things he doesn’t like, but he psyches himself up and does it. The Toys “R” Us event is perfect it will give him what he needs when he is in the hospital a main distraction like the Lego.”

Meet the candidate: Jean Cloutier Candidate campaigns on fiscal prudence platform Staff

Q: Why are you running? A: “Sometimes it can be complicated for people to navigate the bureaucracy,” Cloutier said. “I know small business. I know the community. I know the issues. “Our parks need to be rejuvenated,” he said, adding that some park and playground infrastructure in the ward dates back 40 years. “We need to put some investment in there. It’ll be good for kids.” He said he will also strive to continue with efforts to promote and ensure safe streets and accessible communities in order to create neighbourhoods that are pedestrian friendly and

Q: Detail your past political experience or activism at any level of government or political party. A: “I’m not part of any political party. I have never run before. I have donated to some local candidates that I have a lot of respect for, one of them being Peter (Hume), the other one being David McGuinty. I did actively campaign for Peter in

the year 2000 in his election.” Q: How will you fundraise? A: “I have fundraised with letters. I have fundraised with contacts that I have in the community, friends, my own family. My own funds have gone into the campaign,” he said. Q: Do you have any potential conflicts of interest? Are there any boards or associations you will have to step down from? A: “I do not have any rela-

He said he would not advocate for a zero-per-cent tax increase, which could drain city reserves. “If I’m going to be fiscally responsible we’ve got to say, we’ve got to know that at some point we need a reserve,” he said. “We need a rainy day fund for if we get an extraordinary winter of snow, if we get a health emergency, any number of things that the city has to deal with. And I think that’s being fiscally responsible.” Other council candidates competing for Ward 18 include Adam Bowick, Daher Muse Calin, Clinton Cowan, Jeff Dubois, Hussein Mahmoud, Perry Marleau, John Redins and Brandon Scharfe.

News - Fiscal prudence and fairness to taxpayers is top of mind for Jean Cloutier, who is currently campaigning for the first time to become the next city councillor representing Alta Vista Ward. The long-time Alta Vista resident points to his experience as the former owner and operator of the Towne and ByTowne cinemas. He has also served as president of the Canterbury Community Association for the past four years. Cloutier, a chartered professional accountant, has worked for the past 12 years as the financial controller for Tubman Funeral Homes. Married to his wife Sandra for 27 years, together they have two daughters and a son. Their

daughter Katherine passed away from a brain tumour in 1996 at a young age. “It was not a tough decision to run,” Cloutier said, adding that he would promote arts and culture in the city as well as ensure the city has healthy financial reserves, among other priorities.

Q: What do they think was the biggest issue in the ward last term and how was it handled? A: “I’m really happy that Lansdowne Park was taken care of. I know that it was controversial for some residents but it was simply a paved parking lot. We got a nice, new stadium that will revert back to the city in 30 years and we have a nice urban park. We saved the Aberdeen Pavilion, so I think, all in all, it was a good project.” As a regular user of public transit, Cloutier is a proponent of the LRT and O-Train expansion projects, which he says will reduce traffic in communities, such as Alta Vista, as well as provide transit users with new travel options. Q: What will be the biggest issue/s next term? A: “We need to stop dumping sewage into the Ottawa River,” he said. “I think we were doing a disservice to the community

Meet the candidate: Clinton Cowan Alta Vista candidate advocates for vibrant, safe communities Staff

News – Community involvement drives Clinton Cowan, who hopes to become the next councillor to represent Alta Vista Ward at the council table. “The space we live in – we either throw rocks at it or make it better,” said the married 38year-old father of three young children. Cowan is no stranger to the election race, having campaigned for Alta Vista’s council seat in the 2010 municipal election. For the past 13 years he has worked as a labour relations consultant in mediation, negotiations and conflict resolution. His volunteer roles include serving as vice-president of the South-East Ottawa Community Health Centre’s volunteer board of directors, past chair of the organization’s community rela-

tions committee and more recently as a director on the Alta Vista Community Association. Cowan also previously volunteered with the Lowertown Community Association, and formerly served on the Byward Market Safety and Security Committee. Q: Why are you running? A: These days it’s about continuing to build vibrant, safe and healthy communities so my passion lies in that we ensure that our community is safe and sustainable, that our infrastructure continues to be invested in. As Alta Vista has been a relatively stable community it tends to have been overlooked over the years for its needs. And most importantly I’d like to see that we push for LRT phase two – prioritize it southward as part of the grander strategy to alleviate the traffic concerns that we face here in Alta Vista, as the south end truly has no alternative than to pave their front lawns, buy more cars and continue the gridlock downtown.

Clinton Cowan is vying to become the Alta Vista Ward councillor. Q: Detail your past political experience or activism at any level of government or political party. A: Cowan says he campaigned to become councillor for Alta Vista Ward in the 2010 Ottawa municipal election. He came in second behind incumbent Coun. Peter Hume, capturing 18.7 per cent of the vote, or 2,374 ballots. Q: How will you fundraise?

RBC Simpliﬁed Life Insurance.

A: As you can see from my 2010 campaign, it’s from individuals, families, small business owners.. Q: Do you have any potential pecuniary interests? A: No. There’s no strings attached. Q: Are there any boards or associations you will have to step down from? A: I have recently stepped away from being vice-president

of the South-East Ottawa Community Health Centre. Also, I have been the chair of the (centre’s) community relations committee for several years and I’ve just stepped down from being a director on the Alta Vista Community Association. Q: What do you think was the biggest issue in the ward last term and how was it handled? A: There’s a lot of cutthrough traffic that comes here. There’s a lot of congestion. There’s a lot of aggressive drivers on our once-quiet side streets and in the past there were some minor education campaigns that addressed that. But it’s time for us to be more comprehensive and more involved in better planning of our roadways. One of the things in my campaign I’m very excited about is 40, and 40 right away – that we push for 40 kilometres if there are unposted speed limits for our residential zones, (and) that we include 40 kilometres of new bike lanes on the roads in Alta Vista to alleviate the congestion and create greater road safety for all commuters, and ensure shorter and safer commutes. Q: What will be the biggest

issue/s next term? A: It still comes down to residents wanting to live in a healthy, safe and vibrant community. It’s something I’ve been championing for years and there is a lot of support for the message that I’m sharing, that they want to see improved transportation options here, that we start planning our next community centre to be responsive to our city’s growth, that they wish to see that the opening of the LRT doesn’t compromise the effectiveness of our local bus routes, that we step up our procurement processes and oversight on our infrastructure projects, that we don’t lose face anymore as a city, that we secure the value for the money spent at city hall. I have a program called Service Alta Vista, which would pool all of the community’s information and planning in regards to planning, traffic, celebrations, all in one place on an online portal. Other council candidates competing for Ward 18 include Adam Bowick, Daher Muse Calin, Jean Cloutier, Jeff Dubois, Hussein Mahmoud, Perry Marleau, John Redins and Brandon Scharfe.

There’s simply no reason to wait.

I am also a resident of River Ward. Four candidates for this position currently do not live here. Why are they not running in their home ward? Q: Detail your past political and civic experience or activism (volunteering, campaigning, donations, employment) at any level of government or political party. Also, do you have any experience as a lobbyist or for a lobbying non-profit organization? A: I am not a member of any political party.

Former school trustee Riley Brockington wants to represent River Ward. the Riverside Park Community Association and the Hunt Club Riverside Community Centre and past director of the Hunt Club Community Organization. Q: How will you fundraise? How do you feel about accepting donations from corporations and unions? A: Mostly by family, friends and myself. Individuals, cor-

porations and unions have the ability to engage in the political process and make a contribution if they wish. All contributions are vetted and verified by my campaign. I do not support a ban on these types of contributions, but I would support a decrease to the limit they contribute. Q: Do you have any potential pecuniary interests (declared conflict of interest) ie. ties (financial, family, otherwise) with companies or groups that would be impacted by a city council decision? Are there any boards or associations you will have to step down from? A: No conflicts. Q: What do you think was the biggest issue in River Ward last term and how was it handled? What will be the biggest issue/s next term and how will you approach it? A: Last term; the Airport Parkway pedestrian bridge. This is an example of how projects can get ahead of themselves and there appeared to be a complete lack of oversight. The silver lining was when city Coun. (Maria) McRae demanded an audit of this project. Staff are not held accountable for the repeated failures and waste of taxpayer dollars. Why was no

one fired? Once I get elected, I will immerse myself in this issue to ensure the city does not pay one cent more than it has to and that we are on track for recovering costs from the original builder. In the new term: various development issues; the old Bayview School property on Riverside Drive and neighbourhood development requests across River Ward. With respect to the old Bayview site on Riverside, the approach will be to ensure city staff adheres to the wishes of the community as set out in a lengthy consultation process and that as the project unfolds, the community is updated and informed of the various stages in a timely and consistent manner. Various neighbourhood development issues will also come to light and I will ensure that requests are aligned to the similar look and feel of the nearby community. Other candidates registered in River Ward are: Barbara Carroll, Don Francis, Antonio Giannetti, Jeff Koscik, Michael Kostiuk, Mike Patton, Colin Pennie, Vanessa Sutton and Bruce Winchester.

Q: Why are you running in GloucesterSouthgate? A: In my opinion, I think this is a ward that has been left behind. If you look at places like Kanata and Orléans, they have really been growing exponentially. I have lived here for (more than) 15 years and I always have to go look for jobs outside the ward ... I want better opportunities for people in this ward.

Also, do you have any experience as a lobbyist or for a lobbying nonprofit organization? A: I have helped different campaigns in the past, different political organizations and people. That I have done many times ... I don’t go with party affiliations, I just go with the best candidate I want to support. One of the organizations I have worked for is BWCEN (Black Women’s Civic Engagement Network) – so that is a huge thing for us, to make sure people are engaged, they are involved and they understand what is going on.

Q: What do you think was the biggest issue in Gloucester-Southgate last term and how was it handled? What will be the biggest issue/s next term and how will you approach it? A: I think the ground was set ... I’m very happy with Lansdowne. I’m very happy with the progress on LRT ... I am also very happy they are extending the O-Train – that’s very good for my ward. (For the upcoming term) a lot of people worry about transit and crime. Things have not gone as smoothly as people may want us to believe. There are a lot of gunshots in the area, a lot of people getting mugged. They’ve tried to do something about it, but I think it’s not over. (We need) deeper solutions and more preventative and proactive moves. We have a lot of youth in the area but we don’t have structured things for them to do. I would set up a youth centre in the area ... have the youth involved in a supervised environment ... It would be a city building, probably private partnerships with people who have a cause with that type of thing. We would explore different options.

News - Second-place finisher Lilly Obina will again try to unseat Coun. Diane Deans in Gloucester-Southgate during the Oct. 27 municipal election. A judge ruled the Hunt Club Park resident was allowed to run again even though she broke election rules. Obina was three minutes late filing her election expenses and her report wasn’t audited – something that would have cost $1,200 she didn’t have, Obina said. She eventually filed an audited statement that showed her initial report was accurate. “It was too important for something like that to block me from running,” Obina said. “I think I can offer a lot more than the three minutes I was late.” Obina, a mother of four boys, has lived in Ottawa for 21 years and works as a project manager for Ross Video, a global engineering company. She holds a master’s degree in business administration from Dalhousie University. Her community involvement includes supporting disabled people through Citizen Advocacy and providing community workshops on how to write business plans and grant applications.

Meet the candidate: Michael Kostiuk City needs to improve planning process for urban development: River Ward candidate Staff

News - Michael Kostiuk has mapped out his future over the next four years and it includes a seat at city council representing the residents of River Ward. The 60-year-old, who holds a master’s degree in geography from Carleton University, has a long history working in the field of geography, including as a cartographer for Public Works Canada, a project officer for Natural Resources Canada, and a geography officer for Elections Canada. The long-time Carlington resident has also worked as a planning assistant for the former Goulbourn township in 1998 and as a deputy returning officer for Elections Ontario during the 2011 Ontario election. Now employed as a supply teacher for the Ottawa Catholic School

this template into place over many decades. We should be using in this template for proper, common sense, and cost-effective planning.

Board, Kostiuk also holds a bachelor of education degree from the University of Ottawa, a diploma in international trade from Algonquin College and a certificate in business administration from the University of Ottawa. Kostiuk is a former president of the Carlington Community Association and has participated in meetings of the Federation of Citizen’s Association of Ottawa. For more information about Kostiuk’s candidacy visit: michaelkostiuk. com. Q: Why are you running? A: I want to share my unique and extensive knowledge and ability about urban planning, transit and city governance with the citizens of Ottawa. I do not believe that the city is focusing its transit planning and urban development properly or correctly. The city needs to use demographics much better than it does when it does its planning for the future. We should be using our satellite cities of Kanata, Barrhaven and Orléans for their intended purposes, which is to be fully integrated standalone cities with a dense urban core that also supports a large employment base.

Q: Detail your past political experience or activism (volunteering, campaigning, donations, employment) at any level of government or political party. Also, do you have any experience as a lobbyist or for a lobbying non-profit organization? A: I ran for city council in River Ward in 2010. I have helped friends with their campaigns over the years; that included the Liberals, Conservatives and NDP. Q: How will you fundraise? A: Myself and friends.

SUBMITTED

Armed with a bachelor’s degree in education and a master’s in geography as well as a long history volunteering within his community, Michael Kostiuk is looking to land a seat on city council representing River Ward.

Q: Do you have any potential pecuniary interests (declared conflict of interest) i.e. ties (financial, family, otherwise) with builders, developers, construction companies, etc. Any

boards or associations you will have to step down from? A: I am not sure. I work for the Catholic school board as a supply teacher and I would probably end that job anyway if I had to resign. I work part time in real estate and that may have to be ended. Q: What do you think was the biggest issue in the ward last term and how was it handled? What will be the biggest issue/s next term? A: Transportation and public safety and accountability last time. This time: accountability, safety: both traffic and crime related, graffiti, the lack of services especially in areas like Carlington, public transit, transportation: roads, sidewalks, bike lanes, garbage collection, snow removal, taxes and hydro costs. Other candidates currently registered in River Ward include Riley Brockington, Barbara Carroll, Antonio Giannetti, Jeff Koscik, Don Francis, Mike Patton, Colin Pennie, Vanessa Sutton and Bruce Winchester.

That’s modern luxury.SM

Meet the candidate: Mike Patton River Ward candidate touts his city hall experience Staff

News – Mike Patton is campaigning to bring his political and communications experience to the council table as the next River Ward councillor. The life-long Ottawa resident worked for Coun. Rick Chiarelli for four years, then served as director of communications for former Ottawa mayor Larry O’Brien. Patton represented the Progressive Conservative Party when he came in second to Jim Watson, who won the Ottawa West-Nepean riding in the 2007 provincial election. His work experience includes roles as director of government and media relations of the Canadian Cosmetic, Toiletry and Fragrance Association from 2007 to 2010, then as director of communications for the federal Ministry of Public Safety

for two years. He is currently a senior fellow with the Arthur Meighen Institute for Public Affairs, where he does public policy research and communications. The 51-year-old has been married for 18 years and calls Nepean home. Q: Why are you running? A: “I didn’t expect (Coun.) Maria (McRae) not to run and I had no intention of running whatsoever,” Patton said, adding that at least half a dozen candidates elected to the council table will be brand new. Half of those left at the table with be finishing their first term, said Patton, who believes his experience working with senior staff at city hall for a number of years will allow him to properly represent River Ward. “It’s going to be a very inexperienced council and there’s a lot of very significant decisions that have to be made,” he said. Q: Detail your past political experience or activism at any level of government or political party.

SUBMITTED

Mike Patton is campaigning to represent River Ward. A: The mandate of the Meighen Institute is not just to create good public policy, but to ﬁnd ways to see it be enacted so really we’ve been on the activist side. Volunteering – I served on the board of directors for the Victims Assistance Services of Ottawa-Carleton around the early 2000s. Q: Also, do you have any experience as a lobbyist or for a lobbying non-proﬁt organization? A: A part of my role at the Canadian Cosmetic Toiletries and Fragrance Association was

lobbying. It wasn’t a big part, but it certainly was part of my role there. Q: How will you fundraise? A: I’m pretty much self-ﬁnanced right now. I will raise some money. I will accept money from corporations and unions – I don’t have a concern about that. Q: Do you have any poten-

tial pecuniary interests? A: That is my only potential conﬂict is that my brother is in the police (service in Ottawa.) Q: What do you think was the biggest issue in the ward last term and how was it handled? A: The pedestrian bridge over the Airport Parkway. The fact that it took so much time and was so poorly managed from beginning to end, (residents) have great concerns that that is symbolic of a lack of quality management at the city. The management of the green bin (contract) also, the whole Orgaworld (issue) – it’s people’s money. Have you no respect? Q: What will be the biggest issue/s next term? A: My big things (are) Ottawa River Action Plan. We’re still dumping poop in the river. That’s crazy to me. There’s a plan, there’s the money. What’s the holdup? Garbage – People want weekly garbage pickup. They want it

year round, but they’ll settle for summer. In order to bring about summer pickup, you’d have to put out a contract that’s going to be expensive. I would like to see weekly garbage pickup, but there is an upward limit to how much more money people will pay for that service. The biggest thing I’m hearing is ‘the traffic on my street is driving too fast.’ But it’s also north-south access through the ward; (it’s) an enormous problem because the south end of the city is growing so quickly that it is flooding River Ward. They’re very excited to see the O-Train expanded; they see that as being a benefit, but they are looking for a more comprehensive plan to deal with that. Additional River Ward candidates include Riley Brockington, Barbara Carroll, Don Francis, Antonio Giannetti, Jeff Koscik, Michael Kostiuk, Colin Pennie, Vanessa Sutton and Bruce Winchester.

CARRIER OF THE MONTH!

News -Jeff Koscik is promising voters he will keep his eye on the fiscal bottom line if he is elected councillor of River Ward. Council struggled to keep its finances in order during its last term in office, said Koscik, with the city going more than $20 million over budget on snow removal and paying $7 million in unnecessary costs to Orgaworld to process organic waste. Koscik promises to promote fiscal responsibility, create meaningful environmental change and transform Ottawa into “a city of innovation.” The 25-year-old candidate, who holds a bachelor’s degree in political science from Carleton University, says he has always had a keen interest in municipal politics. “I decided finally I should try to follow my dream,” he said. Koscik, who is married and lives in River Ward, worked as an appeals and inquiry officer with the federal government’s social security tribunal before becoming a full-time candidate.

Q: Why are you running? A: I am running because I want to serve my community and help others. I have always wanted to be a politician because I view politics as the best way to help the greatest number of people. Being young I am excited to bring a fresh new perspective to the issues we face to help us plan for the future.

Steenbakkers backs out of Barrhaven trustee race Two remaining candidates duke it out over Catholic vote Jennifer McIntosh jennifer.mcintosh@metroland.com

News - Andrea Steenbakkers, who’s on the ballot for the Ottawa Catholic School Board trustee for the area representing Barrhaven, Findlay Creek and Riverside South, announced Oct. 3 that she doesn’t want to be considered. The Sept. 12 nomination deadline to withdraw from municipal election had already passed, which means her name will still be on the ballot, but the head of the Barrhaven Business Improvement Area is asking residents to consider her opponents platforms. “The decision I am making is a personal one,” she said in a press release. “In the last two

weeks, we have had a signiﬁcant and unexpected change at home. My kids need me here right now and I need to be here. I need to put my family ﬁrst.” Steenbakkers said she didn’t want the school board to have to incur the cost of a byelection if she were picked. She encouraged residents to do their research on the remaining candidates. Greg Deernsted, who works as an energy manager for Public Works, moved to Barrhaven 10 years ago when he was starting his family. “We wanted a community that had supports for people starting a family and there was more in Barrhaven than the more urban community,” he said. His kids, now 10 and seven, attend St. Emily School on Chapman Mills Drive. Deernsted served on the school council for a number of years and said his campaign for trustee was the next logical step. One of the issues Deernsted would like to see addressed

is the gap in services for kids requiring diagnosis for learning disabilities like attention deficit disorder and Asperger’s syndrome. His son was eventually diagnosed with hyperactive attention deficit disorder, but only after three years of waiting. “There’s a bit of a disconnect, because presumably full-day kindergarten aims to improve learning at earlier ages, but the diagnosis takes three years,” Deernsted said. “The system works once it’s in place, but it’s getting there (that’s difficult).” Now with his younger daughter exhibiting signs of ADD, Deernsted said he and his wife are going to seek an assessment privately. “We don’t want to lose the three years,” he said. Deernsted said the loss of Steenbakkers is a unique situation because she was a strong candidate. He said he welcomes the chance to make a difference if elected. Deernsted said he wants to

see the board plan better, and hopes to champion for a new high school in Riverside South and a school in Findlay Creek. “St. Francis Xavier has a number of portables, but you can’t add lab or shop space and that affects the students’ experience,” he said. He applauded the board’s ﬁscal management and outcomes on standardized testing. His full platform can be found at www.deernstedfortrustee.com. Spencer Warren began his career with Ottawa Hydro

eight years ago. He has lived in Barrhaven for 15 years. His eight-year-old daughter started school at St. Emily and was eventually moved to the new school, St. Cecilia, when it opened in 2013. Four years ago Warren joined the Stonebridge Community Association as the director of safety and security. During that time he worked on trafﬁc calming issues around the safety of the students. He said residents are concerned about transportation – walking in winter on paths

that aren’t plowed. Warren said residents are also concerned about overcrowding at schools. “Another topic is the desire for parents to have French immersion offered sooner than Grade 4,” he said in an email. “Another option would be nice, particularly as (there is) high demand for bilingualism in a government town.” Warren said a critical issue at the board level is the threat of losing the Catholics school system. The push to merge school boards, as has been the situation in other provinces wouldn’t do students a service, he said. “Choice is important,” he said. “Maintaining separate Catholic school system is important. There is a misconception that it would save money to merge board but the same number of kids need to be educated.” For more information on Warren’s campaign www. VoteForSpencerWarren.com.

CHARITABLE GIVING WITH LIFE INSURANCE POLICIES - A WIN-WIN FOR BOTH FAMILY AND CHARITIES The use of life insurance in the context of charitable gifting at death will appeal to those who want to reduce or eliminate taxes at death and/or have a strong desire to make a larger bequest to one or more charities. By Shawn Ryan, CFP, TEP Partner and Senior Insurance and Estate Planner Scrivens Insurance and Financial Solutions

Life insurance is a popular, practical way to make a signiﬁcant gift to CHEO. Your donation will be wisely administered through investments which will provide a stable source of income to CHEO for years to come. There are three main methods you can gift life insurance: by making a bequest of the proceeds of a life insurance policy through your Will; donating the policy during your lifetime at fair market value; or by naming CHEO as beneﬁciary and remaining as policy owner.

Here is a scenario where a mother owns purchase a permanent life insurance policy a family business and wishes to gift the for $500,000 and donate the proceeds to shares to her adult children through a charity through her Will. provision in her Will. She wants to eliminate This is a win-win for both her family and capital gains taxes of the shares payable the charity. She will own the policy during at her death. The taxable capital gains her lifetime and name her estate as policy reportable on the deemed disposition of beneﬁciary. She will direct that a gift in an shares on death is $500,000 and tax owing amount equal to the life insurance proceeds on this amount is $230,000 (base on a be paid to a charity named in the Will.

This credit has completely eliminated the tax liability on the shares at death and

The use of life insurance in the context of charitable gifting at death will appeal to those who want to reduce or eliminate taxes at death and/or have a strong desire to make a larger bequest to one or more charities. This should be considered in the bigger context of planned giving options available to donors both during their lifetime and at death.

Potato, mushroom frittata great use for leftover potatoes Lifestyle - Here is a tasty way to use up leftover cooked potatoes. Serve for breakfast, brunch or a light supper. Preparation time: 10 minutes. Cooking time: 18 to 21 minutes. Serves four. INGREDIENTS

• 15 ml (1 tbsp) vegetable oil • 1 onion, diced • 250 ml (1 cup) sliced mushrooms • 375 ml (1-1/2 cups) chopped cooked peeled potatoes • 250 ml (1 cup) diced ham • 8 eggs • 25 ml (2 tbsp) milk • 5 ml (1 tsp) Dijon mustard • 1 ml (1/4 tsp) dried thyme leaves • pinch each salt and pepper • 125 ml (1/2 cup) grated aged cheddar cheese

PREPARATION

In an ovenproof 25-centimetre (10-inch) skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion and mushrooms and cook until the vegetables are softened, about four minutes. Stir in the potatoes and ham and heat through, for about 2 minutes, stirring often. Spread the mixture to make even layer.

In medium bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, mustard, thyme, salt and pepper. Carefully pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tipping it to spread the egg mixture evenly. Cover and cook over medium-low heat, without stirring, until the eggs are almost set, but still moist on the surface, about 10 to 12 minutes. Adjust the oven rack so it is about 10 centimetres (four inches) below the broiler element.Turn on the broiler to high. Scatter cheese evenly over the frittata and broil until the cheese has melted and is golden and bubbly – about two to three minutes. Let stand a few minutes before serving. Tip: If skillet handle is plastic, wrap it in a double layer of foil. Foodland Ontario

Fall always created special smells on the farm

y older and much wiser sister Audrey said it was all in

my head. I had discussed it with her at length one Saturday while we were doing our weekly chores. That morning we were upstairs changing beds, dusting the floor with the rag mop, and wiping the windowsills with a damp cloth. It was a time I cherished because it meant I had my sister all to myself, even if she was in a hurry to get finished so that she could visit with her best friend Iva on the next farm. And so I asked her again. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Audrey, why does fall smell different than other times of the year?â&#x20AC;? Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when she told me it was all in my head. I certainly didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to argue with my sister. After all, she was much older than I was, and as far

MARY COOK Mary Cookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Memories as I was concerned was just about the smartest girl in all of Renfrew County. So I decided I would not mention it again. I would just go on believing in my heart that fall smelled differently from any other time of the year. All I had to do was stand at the back door, put my head outside and breathe deeply. The big maple tree had shed all its leaves, and I could smell them. No one could convince me that there was no smell from them â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it was a mixture of damp ground and dried leaves. I would fill my nostrils

with the scent and marvel. I would wonder if I was the only one who noticed there was a difference between the smells of summer and fall. The frost would come and I knew the smell outside would change again. I knew without a doubt that the smoke from the cook stove was different once the colder weather came. At no other time of the year did I notice the wonderful smell of burning logs as I watched the smoke curl above the roof of the house. And I would wonder why. When I went into the barns

at night, they certainly didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t smell like they did in the heat of the summer. The cows gave off a warmth and it filled the barn, and the aroma of the hay from the loft wafted down. Even the straw in each stall had what I called a cold weather smell. When I mentioned this to my sister Audrey, she said it was just my imagination playing tricks on me. It was all in my head, she said. The inside of our house smelled different too. The windows were shut tight, and trapped inside were the smells of gum rubbers, propped against the woodbox beside the Findlay Oval, and the musty smell of winter coats hanging at the back door. I could smell wool. Everywhere there was wool â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in the hats and mitts at the ready for the winter in a basket under the bake table, there was wool.

Certainly, these things were nowhere to be seen in the summer. So how could my sister Audrey say it was all in my head? I would wonder why she too didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t notice the smell of fall. By the time we were well into October, Mother would have put out the braided rugs that had spent the summer rolled up in layers of the Renfrew Mercury and kept under our beds. They too had the smell of fall on them. There would be the faint aroma of wool and from the papers, and they would add to that special tinge to my nose that told me the season had changed. The smells of summer were gone, and the smells of fall were around me. By that time of year, our summer clothes would be changed to warmer skirts and sweaters. They had been

packed away in a trunk over the hot weather, with hands full of mothballs scattered between the layers. It mattered not how long Mother hung each piece out on the clothesline, she was never able to completely get rid of the smell of the mothballs. They too had the smell of fall. So, it mattered not how much my older and wiser sister Audrey said it was all in my head. I knew without a doubt, this time of year there was a special smell all around me. It came in gusts outside, and hung inside our old log house, and stayed in my nostrils, bringing me a special feeling of warmth and contentment. At that young age, I decided it was my favourite time of the year. There was no doubt about it. Fall had come at last â&#x20AC;&#x201C; hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t my nose told me so?

city of great prosperity, but there are many others that reveal the city needs to do a better job improving health and wellbeing.” The report was released during a panel discussion at city hall on Oct. 7. One panelist, Mike Bulthuis, executive director of the Alliance to End Homelessness, said the city needs to draw on the potential and assets of that highly educated and high-earning population to find creative ways to help those in poverty. The Making Votes Count Where We Live initiative partnered to produce the report and leverage it to encourage people to vote in the Oct. 27 municipal election and support policies that can improve the wellbeing of all residents. The report focuses on four municipal policy recommendations that would make Ottawa a healthier and fairer place, according to the coalition: * Implement the city’s 10year housing and homelessness plan * Enact policies to increase access to nutritious and affordable food * Promote city employment

News - Ottawa offers a great quality of life for residents – those who are affluent. But according to a new report from the local health and resource centres, the city needs to do a better job investing in people and communities. The report, called Bridging the Gap, used the Canadian Index of Wellbeing’s 64 indicators to assess the divide in the quality of life for Ottawa citizens. The results are telling, according to the Coalition of Community Health and Resource Centres. Although Ottawa has the highest median income in the country, the city’s poverty rate sits at 11.7 per cent – only marginally lower than the number for Ontario – 13.9 per cent – and Canada as a whole, which has a 14.7 per cent poverty rate. “When you look at the (Canadian Index of Wellbeing) indicators for Ottawa you find a disturbing divide,” said Jack McCarthy, executive director of Somerset West Community Health Centre. “There (are) some indicators that show a

Investing money in helping give people access to transportation they need in order to participate in and contribute to society can save money in the long run, Lalonde said. Those people will need to rely on social services less if they are empowered to use transit to help themselves, she said. “We need to ask (candidates) ‘why not,’ instead of ‘why,’” she said.

Bridgetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brigade back after seven-year-oldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cancer returns Adam Kveton adam.kveton@metroland.com

Community - When the run never seems to end and their legs begin to buckle, Bridgetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brigade has a simple way to keep going. They think of Bridget Zavitske: her long journey through cancer treatment, and how sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still fighting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Who am I to stop running, when this poor little girl and so many others like her are fighting the fight of their lives?â&#x20AC;? said Tracy Facchin, a founding member of Bridgetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brigade. The group of 10 runners from Carleton Place, Carp, Kanata and elsewhere in the city took part in the Sears

Great Canadian Run for the second year, having first been inspired in 2013 by Bridget Zavitske, a six-year-old who many of them knew. Bridget was diagnosed with Wilmsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; tumour, a rare childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cancer that affects the kidneys, in June of 2013, said Bridgetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mom, Christy Zavitske. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She had surgery to remove the tumour in her kidney, and then she started remission and chemotherapy,â&#x20AC;? said Zavitske. The cancer had spread to Bridgetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lungs and lymph nodes, but treatment of Wilmsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; tumour has improved drastically over the years, with survival rates in the 80 and 90 per cent range. In honour of Bridgetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bat-

tle with cancer, Facchin and her sister-in-law, Jennifer, organized Bridgetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brigade, with the goal of raising thousands of dollars for childhood cancer research and running in the Sears marathon from Ottawa to Montebello, Que. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was just such an amazing distance,â&#x20AC;? said Facchin, who isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a runner. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It seemed almost impossible.â&#x20AC;? But the group was able to finish the race, with each member running the farthest distance they were capable of. Facchin said she managed seven kilometres that year, while another member of the team who was training for a marathon ran 30 kilometres, and another ran almost 10 kilometres carry-

ing a 23-kilogram weight to represent the two children he knew going through a battle with cancer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whenever I felt tired and worn out, I just thought of Bridget,â&#x20AC;? said Facchin. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bridget canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stop fighting. Every day, she has to wake up and face this battle.â&#x20AC;? See GROUP, page 68

Group raises more than $8,000 for children’s cancer research Continued from page 67

Many teams ran the race in honour of a child with cancer, she said, and some of those children were able to meet their team at the ﬁnish line. Bridget could not as she was still too sick, said Facchin. But, by December of 2013, Bridget had ﬁnished her treatment, and was given a clean bill of health after having a clear MRI on January 20 of this year, said Zavitske. “We honestly thought we were done with cancer treatments,” she said. Six weeks later, Bridget

suddenly could not see, and upon returning to CHEO, her doctors found a six-centimetre tumour had grown on her urethra. “It was a bit of a shock,” said Zavitske. “It grew so quickly.” Bridget’s case is very rare, she said, considering the speed of growth and placement of the tumour. “Wilm’s is very easy to treat, normally, with good results and a 95 per cent cure rate, so she just happened to be (in the) ﬁve per cent,” said Zavitske. North American experts weighed in on Bridget’s case, and she is now once again

OVER

undergoing chemotherapy treatment. But life hasn’t stopped for Bridget. “She is not (fragile),” said Zavitske. “We don’t stop her from doing anything.” That includes riding her new horse, Dancer, which she received through the Children’s Wish Foundation, or jumping around on trampolines during a fundraiser in her honour at Kanata’s Xtreme Trampoline Park on Sept. 19. The fundraiser was one of several Bridget’s Brigade undertook this year in anticipation of doing the Sears run again this year.

The team ﬁnished this year’s run on Oct. 4, managing the 100-kilometre run despite injuries among the team, and raising $8,245. Bridget was, once again, unable to attend as she was undergoing treatment. Zavitske and Facchin said they hope this will mark the end of Bridget’s journey with cancer. “We are keeping our ﬁngers and toes and everything crossed that this is it,” said Zavitske. “As I ran, I thought about the years in the future where (Bridget) will be able to run with our team,” said Facchin.

News - A vacant home on Stagecoach Road in Greely that exploded into a second alarm ďŹ re on the evening of Oct. 9 is completely destroyed, as well as a detached garage and barn. Ottawa Fire Services were called to the scene at 1934 Stagecoach Rd. at around 8:30 p.m. FireďŹ ghters began a defensive attack and representatives from police, paramedics and Hydro One were also on scene. Fire spokesman Marc Messier said on the morning of Oct. 10 that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unclear if anyone was injured in the explosion, which residents said was heard as far away as Metcalfe. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no evidence that there was anybody hurt, but there are still sections we have not been able to access,â&#x20AC;? Messier said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So are we 100 per cent sure that nobody got hurt? No.â&#x20AC;? He was also unable to put a dollar ďŹ gure on the damage, which destroyed the recentlysold home and garage, and left only the shell of the barn

still standing. Neighbour Robert Roberts, who lives across the road from the entrance to the home, said the noise of the explosion and the shockwave it created was alarming. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were just getting ready for supper last night when it happened,â&#x20AC;? he said.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;It almost blew my window out. The window actually bulged in about three inches.â&#x20AC;? ROBERT ROBERTS GREELY RESIDENT

â&#x20AC;&#x153;It almost blew my window out. The window actually bulged in about three inches.â&#x20AC;? Roberts said it felt more like a natural event. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The last time I felt something like that was when there was an earthquake centred in Carsonby near North Gower back in the 1980s,â&#x20AC;? he said. According to Roberts, the explosions continued for about 10 minutes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and then all anyone could see was smoke and ďŹ re. By Friday morning, there

was still a layer of smoke drifting over the area and a pillar of smoke rising from the general area of the farm, although media could not get closer than the start of the propertyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s long laneway. Another neighbour, living next to Roberts who did not want to be named, said the noise from the explosion was deafening. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For a moment I thought that my furnace had exploded,â&#x20AC;? said the neighbour. There were still debris such as insulation and wood on both front yards that had come from the destroyed farm, about a hundreds of metres away. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what it was so I ran to the back of the house,â&#x20AC;? she said. Roberts said friends in Metcalfe several kilometres away heard the blast. Ottawa ďŹ re investigators were beginning a preliminary investigation on Oct. 10, but Messier said they were waiting for police investigators to arrive on scene before an ofďŹ cial joint investigation could get underway. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Because of the explosion we have to get a lot of parties involved,â&#x20AC;? Messier said, including the police arson unit.
